Inter(l)oud :D
Midnight oud is often compared to Interlude Man in every review. The comparison is absolutely permissible and justified. In my opinion, the two fragrances smell identical. I was allowed to smell Interlude Man for the first time at the airport in Istanbul. It really blew me away, especially because it was 35° outside. I find it exciting that it didn't bother me then either. People always say that heavy scents are rather unpleasant in summer or in the heat. If you ever go to southern countries, you experience exactly the opposite. But enough of Interlude :D

Midnight Oud is a heavy and resinous fragrance. The opening is etwasch sharper than Interlude, but the drydown is softer and more pleasant for me. It experiences its real magic after one to two hours. That was also the feedback of the people around me. The longevity is bombastic. The sillage is also not to be misjudged, but long not as blatant as Interlude. However, I find that to be an advantage.

P/L is the thing unbeatable. New he costs about 30 €. Could get hold of him here in the souk for a stable 15 €. For these prices you get really seh much.
The bottle is beautiful massive. But there are probably different versions. I got the one with the fabric decoration around the crown. Looks a bit strange, but can be tolerated :D

And I always thought it would be gone soon...
I don't know if it's just me, but various relevant perfume youtubers have been claiming for years that the production of this fragrance has been discontinued. Gripped by this impending shortage and the worry of never being able to try the fragrance, I secured one of the "last" bottles a few months ago. Since then, I regularly find it on the usual perfume sites or shops, which makes me doubt the discontinuation :D

But now to the fragrance. For me, the fragrance does not smell at all like the "power of the ocean". For me, however, he still smells like summer. He is incredibly refreshing and high-quality citrus.
Durability and sillage are also not bad parents for such an aquatic water.

The bottle is, like all Bulgari fragrances from this series, quite beautiful, but terrible to put up. In addition, squeaks with me sprayer and hangs sometimes.

Overall, he smells really different and for me also somehow special.
